"You..."
"This... this voice, could it be... the transmigrator's cheat, a System?" Judai silently wondered.
"System, what are your functions?"
"[Strongest Duelist System]"
"[This system can enhance the Host's control over their power and activate latent abilities within the Host, based on their dueling experience.]"
"[Additionally, based on Duel Points, the Host can exchange for various cards from any era in the Card Shop.]"
"[As this is the Host's first activation of the system,]"
"[The system will provide a free initial guidance for the Host's power.]"
The System's voice had just faded. Judai felt a terrifying power surge within him. His normally brown eyes now glowed with an orange light.
This was... the Power of the Supreme King!
[Host]
[Yuuki Judai]
[Current Ability: Supreme King's Power LV.1]
[Duel Points: 0]
Ugh... The orange light in his eyes gradually faded. Yuuki Judai felt his body, slightly drained, and breathed softly. This was... the Power of the Supreme King? His body was still too young, simply unable to withstand such immense power. After experiencing the might of the power, Yuuki Judai understood that this wasn't a power he could use at will in his current state.
Oh, right... Yubel...
Judai looked at the Yubel card. He suddenly noticed that the Yubel card was now enveloped in a swirling, indistinct black mist. Gently touching the black mist, a surge of powerful energy erupted, sending Judai tumbling to the floor. He watched the continuously rising black mist. Judai clearly saw Yubel, from the card art, gradually materialize before him. Although it was only a blurry phantom, those demon-like draconic wings and the half-human, half-fiend body still allowed Judai to recognize the figure's identity at a glance.
Yubel... Yes, it was Yubel.
At this moment, Yubel was also silently gazing at the little boy sitting on the floor. Although millennia had passed, Yubel still recognized him at a glance. This 'prince' whom she had devoted her entire life to protecting.
"Ah... Judai... My Judai..." She slowly embraced Judai, feeling the warm body of the boy in her arms. However, her almost completely transparent form could only be maintained for an exceptionally short time.
"I will always protect you, Judai..."
"Heheheh..."
"Judai... my beloved..."
Her voice softly faded. Yubel's form gradually dissipated, reforming into the card in Yuuki Judai's hand.
Judai could clearly feel his physical strength gradually waning. By utilizing the Supreme King's Power, Judai could temporarily see Yubel's card spirit. However, due to the limited amount of power he had awakened, the duration he could maintain it was also very brief. These few minutes were already the limit...
Feeling his power expended, Yuuki Judai collapsed onto his bed and fell into a deep slumber.
"Yubel..." he murmured, "I won't let the future tragedies repeat..."
...
The next day.
Judai slowly awoke to the sound of Mrs. Yuuki's knock on the door. He looked at the [Yubel] card in his hand, recalling the events of last night.
"Although I now know of Yubel's existence," he mused, "my own Supreme King's Power is still too weak... I need to find a way to become stronger... only then can I maintain this power..." The orange light in his eyes flickered and vanished. Yuuki Judai shook his head and got up to go downstairs for breakfast.
After breakfast, before his father left for work, Yuuki Judai stopped him and asked for some pocket money. "Well, this is rare. Judai, you're actually asking me for pocket money on your own?" Mr. Yuuki looked at Judai with some surprise.
"Yes, because I want to buy something..." Yuuki Judai smiled faintly.
Because he had always deeply trusted his precocious son, Mr. Yuuki was very confident in Judai. Generously handing Yuuki Judai ten thousand yen, Mr. Yuuki then kissed his wife goodbye and left for work. Watching his father depart obediently, the smile on Yuuki Judai's face grew even brighter.
For a long time, Judai had already been accumulating pocket money. And the purpose of that pocket money... was exactly that. To buy a deck!
"How can I, the dignified future King of Games, not even have a single deck?" Yuuki Judai looked at the ten-thousand-yen note in his hand, a smile playing on his lips.
